Hall of Famer Michael Irvin, who has had his own run-ins with the law, says he is worried about his friend Warren Sapp.

"Absolutely I am," Irvin said on the Dan LeBatard Show on Miami radio. "I worry about him, man. There's no doubt. I worry about him a lot and I tell him that."

Sapp was has been charged with three counts of domestic violence after allegedly biting and stomping his longtime girlfriend's head. His solicitation charge, stemming from an arrest during Super Bowl weekend, was dismissed last month.

"I'm texting him all the time and a guy alway goes, 'man, I'm good man, I'm good, it ain't nothing" Irvin said. "You always say that, but you worry."

Vince Wilfork definitely should stick to his day job. The now-Houston Texans nose tackle and his wife, Bianca, took on the song “I’ll Be There for You/You’re All I Need to Get By” by Method Man and Mary J. Blige during a karaoke performance this weekend, but there was a little creative twist. Big Vince elected to take on Blige’s part, while Bianca rapped.

Bianca Wilfork crushed her verses, but the former New England Patriot, on the other hand, might need a lesson or two.

Coach Pete Carroll singled out Jimmy Graham as a player who stood out during OTAs.

Graham has taken to his new surroundings well. "He’s fit in with the players," Carroll said. "There was some talk about stuff in other seasons and all, that’s become part of the fun. He’s a great addition." Graham doesn't have the same ceiling he once did thanks to Seattle's run-based attack, but he'll be Russell Wilson's top target and a good bet for double-digit touchdowns again.

Atlanta Falcons Pro Bowl return specialist Devin Hester will have a chance to earn another ESPY.

Hester was nominated in this year's category of Best Record-Breaking Performance for his 20th career return touchdown last season against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Hester returned a punt 62 yards for a score in the Falcons' 56-14 dismantling of the Bucs.

Hester, who won an ESPY in 2007 as the Best Breakthrough Athlete of the Year while with the Chicago Bears, made his record-setting moment more magical when he high stepped to the end zone in the same fashion as his mentor, Deion Sanders. Hester broke Sanders' mark that night, and Sanders was in the Georgia Dome as an NFL Network analyst to witness it.

"A lot was made about where Jimmy Graham lines up during arbitration with the Saints. Where will 88 line up most for the Hawks?"

A: It’s too early to know exactly how the Seahawks will use Graham this season, but given the nature of Seattle’s offense, it’s safe to assume he’ll do more blocking than he did in New Orleans, where he was basically an oversized receiver. Given Seattle’s history with its tight ends, expect to see Graham move around plenty, lining up at times next to a tackle, but also in the slot and even split out wide as a receiver.

TULSA, Okla. -- Riquna Williams' step-back jumper put Tulsa up by two with 10.9 seconds left, and the Shock held off the Seattle Storm 93-89 on Sunday to tie the franchise record with their eighth straight victory.

The Shock also had an eight-game winning streak while based in Detroit in 2003.

Karima Christmas' 3-pointer with 44.9 seconds gave Tulsa (8-1) its first lead in nearly 5 minutes at 89-87. Skylar Diggins, who finished with 31 points, banged her knee on the play and had to leave the game.

Ramu Tokashiki tied it for the Storm (2-7), and Williams hit the go-ahead jumper with her foot on the 3-point line.

Seattle's Renee Montgomery missed a long-distance attempt with time running out. Christmas grabbed the rebound and added two free throws with less than a second remaining.
